TWICE-SMOKED POTATOES

Twice-Smoked Potatoes image

Twice "baked" potatoes except on the smoker instead of in the oven. This is a great side for ribs, brisket, or whatever else you've got the smoker fired up for. Once the potatoes are cut open, they take on the smoke flavor quickly so you won't want to leave them in there for more than 30 minutes. I used hickory for these but any wood will work.
